AI Article Synopsis

  • - Dietary salt restriction is crucial for managing fluid retention in chronic kidney disease (CKD) patients, as shown in a 7-day study where patients consumed a low-salt diet of 5g/day.
  • - Among 311 patients studied, significant weight loss was noted on Day 4 (0.7 kg) and Day 7 (1.0 kg), with increased weight loss observed in patients with higher urinary salt excretion.
  • - The study found that higher body mass index (BMI) and urinary salt excretion correlated with greater initial weight loss, indicating that dietary changes can impact fluid retention in CKD patients, but further long-term studies are necessary.

Article Abstract

Dietary salt restriction is essential for managing fluid retention in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD). In this retrospective cohort study, we investigated weight loss from the perspective of fluid status in CKD patients during a 7-day hospitalization period while consuming a low-salt diet (5 g/day). Among 311 patients, the median weight loss (interquartile range, maximum) was 0.7 (0.0-1.4, 4.7) kg on Day 4 and 1.0 (0.3-1.7, 5.9) kg on Day 7. Patients were classified into quartiles based on pre-hospital urinary salt excretion (quartile [Q] 1, 1.2-5.7; Q2, 5.8-8.4; Q3, 8.5-11.3; Q4, 11.4-29.2 g/day). Weight loss was significantly greater in Q3 and Q4 than in Q1. The body mass index (BMI) and urinary salt excretion in the first 24 hours after admission were independently associated with rapid weight loss on Day 4 by multivariate logistic regression analysis. In conclusion, CKD patients with a high salt intake or high BMI exhibit rapid weight loss within a few days of consuming a low-salt diet. Dietary salt restriction is effective for reducing proteinuria in these patients, but long-term observation is needed to confirm the sustained effects.

Menopause is a complex period in women's life, when weight gain and predisposition to obesity are frequent. Moreover, even during menopause transition, women begin to lose lean mass up to 0.5% and, therefore, an increase in the percentage of fat mass with central distribution and an increased risk of metabolic syndrome.

Background: Weight loss after sleeve gastrectomy (SG) demonstrates significant diversity in the long term and the implicated mechanisms behind suboptimal clinical response (SCR) or recurrent weight gain (RWG) need to be scrutinized. This study retrospectively examines weight-loss trajectories, aiming to identify critical time points to optimize follow-up strategies and guide future prospective research.

Methods: This is a single-center, retrospective study of 104 patients that underwent SG.

Multi-targeted therapies are gaining attention in the management of multifactorial diseases due to their poly pharmacology, enhanced potency and reduced toxicity. Metabolic disorders like Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and obesity necessitate multi-targeted therapy to improve insulin sensitivity, regulate glucose homeostasis and support weight loss. Medicinal plants rich in bioactive compounds exhibit multi-targetted action with minimal side effects.

Purpose: Obesity in mid-life is a well-established risk factor for developing renal cell carcinoma (RCC); however, patients with RCC who are obese at the time of diagnosis have more favorable survival outcomes. To get better insight into the obesity paradox and determine the extent to which weight around diagnosis is stable, we examined pre- and post-diagnosis weight changes in patients with localized RCC.

Methods: We included 334 patients with localized RCC from the prospective cohort ReLife who self-reported body weight at multiple time points ranging from 2 years before to 2 years after diagnosis.
